¡Hola Familia! ¿Qué pasa?
So the airplane ride was fun and squishy. We were on a tiny plane and we were all packed in there pretty tight. Got to California, went with Pres. Donaldson to the temple. It is huge, very pretty. The humidity and constant warmth is weird to get used to, but I'm working on it. Then we went to meet our companions. My companion is Hna. Shallenberger, she's from close to Mazula, Montana. She was actually called English speaking, but Pres. Packer switched it when she got here, her first day.
From there we immediately started teaching. We met Karla Hernandez, she has 3 cute kids and doesn't live with her boyfriend. We taught her, then went to some other lessons and went to a park to talk to people. Then every time we saw someone on the road, we'd jerk the car over and chase after them. Hna. Shallenberger works hard. I love it.
We live close to the airport, so our apartment is loud (and by a fire station). The next day we taught Karla again and committed her to baptism. Cool huh? I have seen so many miracles here. I have met so many amazing people. The other day, we saw some people on the sidewalk, so we pulled the car over, I chased them down. He was a priest and an Iraq-ee (I THINK SHE MEANS IRAQI) refugee. I've meet (I THINK SHE MEANS MET) so many cool people and been completely blown off by others.
Oh tell Bish., that I had fish tacos the other day at a member's house.
Most white people here are jerks, from my experience. There are tons of testigos (WITNESSES) out too, passing out anti-Mormon pamphets (ANOTHER SPELLING ERROR BY STACIE), they always have umbrellas. (Jehovah Witnesses)
There are a lot of churches that all they practice is anit-Mormon Doctrine. Crazy huh? The other day, we were trying to track down a referral while we still had daylight, and were going up to a door when some big black dude hollers at us "Hey Sistas" runs over to us tries grabbing Hna. Shallen's have a prayer circle. It was so funny. We left right after that because it was getting dark. So yeah, I've had a lot of experiences like well sorta like that, but have seen milagro (MIRACLE) after milagro (MIRACLE).
Thanks for the anillo (CTR RING)
Our area is called Spring valley. We cover Bonita, Spring valley, Lemon Grove, Paradise Hills ?, and Encempton ?. Something like that. I don't know. I'm completely lost, I just go and do.
